The first of a whopping 12 slasher movie installments shows the story that preceded Jason Vorhees, the great golem of Paramount Studios and Warner Brothers Pictures. In an adrenaline-filled film, produced and directed by Sean S. Cunningham, you will follow the shocking fate of teenagers who were setting up Camp Crystal Lake for re-opening.
